Ismo Palmamäki
OMT-Physiotherapist– Sports physiotherapy
I started my career as a sports massage therapist in 2001, after which I continued my studies and graduated as a physiotherapist in 2005. I completed my OMT physiotherapist qualification in 2011.
Over 10 years of studies and about 20 years of work experience have enabled me to have a versatile role in treating various musculoskeletal problems. Typical physiotherapy clients include active individuals, recreational athletes, and, additionally, competitive athletes.
My own sports background is quite diverse and extensive, with involvement in sports such as track and field and ice hockey. I feel that the experience gained from these sports helps me understand athletes and their needs quite well, so I have been collaborating with top athletes from various sports such as track and field, triathlon, ice hockey, and figure skating for many years. In addition to my clinic work, I have been working as an educator for rehabilitation professionals (physiotherapists, massage therapists, osteopaths) for the last 15 years.
I use a versatile and individualized approach in my work, where the treatment plan is always tailored to meet the client’s current situation and needs. You set the rehabilitation goals, and I act as your guide on this journey to healthier life.
My field of speciality is:
- Acute and chronic neck and lower back pain
- Various acute or gradually onset shoulder and knee issues
- Rehabilitation of sports injuries, proper scheduling/optimization of rehabilitation, and return to sports
- Pain management such as acupuncture / dry needling
- Foot problems such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendon issues
